Homework Policy

B. F. Day Homework Policy

In lieu of formal homework, teachers ask that K-3 students read 20-30 minutes each evening, as well as spend time with their families, play, and engage in learning in self-directed ways. Teachers may offer optional enrichment projects.

In 4th and 5th grades, teachers ask students to:

Read for 30 minutes per night, sometimes with written reflection.

Complete weekly writing conventions homework.

Complete a math packet per week. Students receive math packets on Monday and return them on Friday. Math packets are a review of work learned the previous week.

Self-assess expository writing in science and share expository writing with a trusted adult at home on a weekly basis.
